656
auto-configure—Specifies the types of upper-interface encapsulations that are
accepted or detected by the dynamic VLAN subinterface. For information, see "vlan
auto-configure" on page 670.
auto-configure agent-circuit-identifier—Enables the creation of VLAN subinterfaces
that are based on agent-circuit-identifier information. For information, see "vlan
auto-configure agent-circuit-identifier" on page 670.
description—Assigns a description to VLAN subinterfaces that are created with this
profile. For information, see "vlan description" on page 671.
policy—Assigns a policy to a VLAN. For information, see "vlan policy" on page 672.
profile—Adds a nested profile assignment, which references another profile that
dynamically configures an upper-interface encapsulation type over the VLAN
subinterface. For information, see "vlan profile" on page 673.
service-profile—Specifies a service profile name for a VLAN. For information, see "vlan
service-profile" on page 673.
svlan ethertype—Specifies that the packet must use this Ethertype to create the
dynamic VLAN subinterface. For more information, see "svlan ethertype" on page 669.
You can override the base profile assignment for a VLAN or S-VLAN that exists with a
profile. For more information, see "Overriding Base Profile Assignments" on page 660.

Nested Profile Assignments

The configuration for each dynamic upper-interface encapsulation type might differ,
depending on the column type built by the router. To manage these differences, you can
include one or more nested profile assignments within the VLAN base profile. A nested
profile assignment references another profile that configures attributes for a dynamic
upper-interface encapsulation type. You can create different profiles for each
upper-interface encapsulation type, or you can create a single profile that includes
attributes for multiple encapsulation types.
For example, the following commands create a base profile named vlanBaseProfile with
two nested profile assignments. The first nested profile assignment references an IP
profile named vlanProfileIp, and the second nested profile assignment references a
PPPoe profile named vlanProfilePppoe.
host1(config)#profile vlanBaseProfile
host1(config-profile)#vlan profile ip vlanProfileIp
host1(config-profile)#vlan profile pppoe vlanProfilePppoe
In this example, vlanProfileIp and vlanProfilePppoe have different IP configurations
depending on the dynamic interface column constructed. For an IP over VLAN dynamic
interface column, the router uses the IP attributes in vlanProfileIp. For an IP over PPPoE
dynamic interface column, the router uses the IP attributes in vlanProfilePppoe.
For information about creating profiles for upper-interface encapsulation types, see
"Configuring a Dynamic Interface from a Profile" on page 559 in "Configuring Dynamic
Interfaces" on page 511.
